QUANTCONNECT COMMUNITY
Evening,
I'm new to the Quantconnect community and I've started to do some research on the platform. This might be super basic, but I can't work out to request sector data (in python) besides manually grabbing a list of company tickers' and running it through a loop.
Thoughts?

Can you post some code you used? Elliot Parker

Huy Hoang thanks for the response; I don't have any code as from my reading of the documentation I couldn't see this ability being directly supported.
Huy Hoang
Elliot Parker You're right. I don't see sector data in the Data Library
Jared Broad Is there GICS sector field in the data that QuantConnect offers? If not, please consider adding it because it's really a standard in investing. Please refer to GICS via these links:

Huy Hoang Agreed, It would make basic analysis a lot easier.
